Bestselling CBA novelist Kingsbury combines her talents in fiction and journalism to recount these true stories of Christmas miracles, which she has reworked and fictionalized slightly. The stories all reflect, to some degree, God's intervention during the Christmas season to demonstrate his love: a small plane flying in treacherous conditions is able, miraculously, to land safely; a young missionary is healed of a potentially crippling disease. Some of the stories—particularly "Jessica's Gift"—could benefit from a softer, less didactic message, but others manage to be inspirational without all of the emotional Sturm und Drang. (Oct. 22)
